Re: “Those dumb Boeing machinists not taking their contract deal.”

It’s worse than that.

A lot of people in the state don’t realize that the Legislature is (was) in special session.

They just voted around $2 billion in tax breaks and technical education benefits for the aviation industry, most of it, obviously, going to Boeing.

The Union voted AFTER the tax breaks passed.

I’ll guess they keep voting “NO” until Boeing agrees to put most of its tax break into union paychecks.

It’s hard to know what will happen. I understand that yesterday Boeing talked to the governor of Utah about putting work in that state.

The machinists are just so foolish and selfish
